Calcium Chloride : Is a uniquely qualified palliative to alleviate surface dust and has done so for over a century. Because it is hygroscopic it absorbs moisture and retains it keeping the treated area from becoming air-born. Together with
low vapor pressure and high surface tension, the road holds its shape and resists washboarding.
There are unlimited application sites where Calcium Chloride can reduce the inconvenience, safety and health hazards associated with fugitive dust : such as unpaved traffic surfaces, secondary roads, parking lots, construction sites and riding rings.
Brine contains the same basic ingredients as full strength Calcium Chloride, Magnesium Chloride and Sodium Chloride.
Its uses parallel as a dust suppressant, heavier initial application is usually required, with possible additional treatments later in the season depending on traffic and weather conditions.
